   I think it is a bit humerous when I take three brands of prespray for example, and they all smell about the same with a bit of a tweek in some.  Its obvious that many cleaning solution companies are producing chemicals using many of the same base cleaning solvents.   

My  gum and glue remover (brand a) I cant tell from a new prespray I just tryed (brand b).  Much of it is all the same thing just in different levels of  concentrate of the same base chemicals.  They both smell identical. 

Ive done some research on the bottles I could find that do list ingredients on the bottle.  Turns out a lot of the long words on the ingredients turned out to be just long words for a simple ingredient.  An  example of this would be " Ammonium Hydroxide" is a flashy version for a simpler wording "ammonia & water". I see it on many many bottles.  

Anyone else notice any of this?
